< p > Complex headers (using < code > colspan< / code > / < code > rowspan< / code > ) can be used to group columns of similar information in DataTables, creating a very powerful visual effect.< / p >
2014-12-11 16:27:11 +01:00
2015-09-25 10:50:54 +02:00
< p > In addition to the basic behaviour, DataTables can also take < code > colspan< / code > and < code > rowspan< / code > s into account when working with hidden columns. The < code > colspan< / code > and < code > rowspan< / code > attributes for each cell are automatically calculated and rendered on the page for you. This allows the < a href = "//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.visible" > < code class = "option" title = "DataTables initialisation option" > columns.visible< / code > < / a > option and < a href = "//datatables.net/reference/api/column().visible()" > < code class = "api" title = "DataTables API method" > column().visible()< / code > < / a > method to take into account < code > rowspan< / code > / < code > colspan< / code > cells, drawing the header correctly.< / p >
2014-12-11 16:27:11 +01:00
2015-09-25 10:50:54 +02:00
< p > Note that each column must have at least one unique cell (i.e. a cell without < code > colspan< / code > ) so DataTables can use that cell to detect the column and use it to apply ordering.< / p >
2013-10-16 13:13:30 +02:00
2015-09-25 10:50:54 +02:00
< p > The example below shows a header spanning multiple cells over the contact information, with one of the columns that the span covers being hidden.< / p >
